Greetings from the Desh!!



It's Felicia here to share what's been going on the past couple days!



None of us can believe we've come upon our last week in Bangladesh, but we're so excited for what God has been doing in the lives of the people at the church and in the villages, and how He's been working in our lives through it all. We pray that he will continue to use us for His purpose in our last few days of ministry!



Sunday evening, excitement ran throughout the apartment as Metali helped us put on our saris. This task proved to take much longer than we expected. Not an easy outfit to put together, a sari is a beautiful wrap dress, if you will, that requires a lot of tucking, folding, and wrapping. Metali was amazing as she made six American girls look like "beautiful princesses", in her words of course. We all felt so beautiful!! As the kids came for Sunday school, Kristin shared the story of Pharoh and Moses...but only the first half! She did a wonderful job and kept the kids in suspense as they will hear the rest of the story this upcoming Sunday. In the church service, Casey and Andrea both shared amazing testimonies of what God has done in their lives, and did an awesome job telling the congregation the personal, and sometimes emotional, details of their stories. It was Danielle's turn to preach this week, and she blew us all away! Giving a sermon on 1 Corinthians 13, she gave her insight on how important it is not only for us to continually love on another, but also for people of the church to strive to love each other in any circumstance. It was such a great message, loved by Albert, the congregation, and us as well! We concluded the service by partaking in communion, and ended the evening by taking lots of pictures. It's always a fun thing to do when you're all dressed up!



Monday afternoon, we traveled to another Hindu village. Greeted by a group of about 40 smiling little kids waiting for us to share with them, we jumped right into singing some songs. Allelu, Allelu is always a crowd pleaser, as the kids giggle when we speed up, continuing to stand up and sit down. For our team, however, we decided it's currently our daily thigh-burning work-out. Sad, but true. At least it's a fun one! I shared the story of Shadrack, Meshach, and Abendigo, bringing the kids up to act it out as I told it. It was a lot of fun! We went on to play games with them, but were not expecting how good they would be. Casey led a game of Four Corners, which the kids loved, but their little hearts weren't content with just one game! As we went on to
